Description

Hailing from the small stretch of coastline where New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts meet, OURBIGBAND is an almagamation of the region's finest musical talent. Whether performing music new or old, classic compositions or original music, OURBIGBAND delivers a fresh and incisive sound. Teeming with improvisors, composers, diverse talents and tastes, OURBIGBAND is not your average orchestra.  

"It's no small feat to organize, rehearse, and direct a big band ensemble, especially in this day and age, and it's rare to see one that is as fun and engaging as this one. I'm looking forward to seeing Chris and OURBIGBAND continue to break musical ground in the future - do not miss this group if you have a chance to see them!"   

- Sam Renshaw, Vice President A&R - PARMA Recordings
